Front End Developer for Aller Media

Опис вакансії

On behalf of Aller Media, Ciklum is looking for Front End Developerto join Odessa team on full-time basis.

Aller Media is the leading publisher of magazines and newspapers in the Nordic region. We need a frontend developer to join our Team of Incredibles. You will be working on many of the brands belonging to the Norwegian part of Aller Media (http://www.aller.no/). Our portfolio is based on custom apps built on different front-end frameworks, Labrador CMS and our styleguides. (Have a look at http://styleguide.dagbladet.no/)

The frontend ninja we are looking for of course needs to eat, sleep and speak CSS, XHTML and JS — but we also need you to have some UX knowledge and understanding to extend the team. As the product owners and developers sit almost 3.000 km apart, we need you to help take team responsibility for the front end of the projects and make sure that the details are ironed out. We have style-guides and an UX team in Oslo, so there will be frameworks available for you. Nonetheless we need you to have a certain understanding of the subject.

You will be working on many of the brands belonging to the Norwegian part of Aller Media. Our portfolio is based custom apps based on different frameworks, Labrador CMS. One of our sites is also built on Drupal. Luckily you have an awesome team with you at the office in Odessa, and a set of product owners that are really eager to make great products, both commercial and for our users.

Our technology stack is mostly based on PHP. We are also looking into stuff like Node.js and even React and GO. As a front-end developer that’s probably not very important to you, however we thought you might want to know.

Most of the tasks for our Odessa team is related to medium sized services. When new services are set up they will still to some extent need to be tweaked and receive some attention.

The upside is that the portfolio has stakeholders from a large part of our Norwegian organization and the team we want you to join has an internal credibility of being agile, fast, friendly and fixing real problems. We will challenge you!

As English is our preferred language for communication (unless you are fluent in Norwegian as well) it is really important that you are skilled in both written and oral English. We have standups on video every morning.

We don’t expect you to know everything about the business, but if you can understand the issues at hand from a business perspective we believe that will help you produce the best fixes for our problems and contribute with value other than just lines of codes.

The interview will be held by our Managing director of development and the Product owner from Aller. We also want you to have a chat with our Ukrainian team-leader.

Do the front-end work on our services with the other front-end ninjas in our teams. See and handle the gritty details other fail to specify.
